    Oh.my.word. this sounds awful! For high intensity workouts should I pre-order a pizza and have it delivered in the middle of class so I can finish strong? Maybe start keeping cupcakes in the car for post-workout? Thanks to bringing this to my attention!

    I hear they are trialling a needle bar in some places. When you feel yourself waning, you just pop over and they fill you up. They are being sensible and keeping it away from the food bar though...Food Hygiene reasons :)

    Love this. I just put my plate on my knees when I'm doing sit ups and at the top, I make sure to get a full bite wouldn't want to starve in the middle of a set!!

    :-) im ok, theres a KFC next to my gym :-)
    Seems like there's always a fast food place next to a gym. They must be the culprits who started the starvation mode theory.

    Below mine there is a place called Tako Sushi. Yes it makes tacos and sushi and is totally delicious. The smell after my workout is so tempting.

    We have a local gym that serves free pizza on Tuesdays. It keeps the customers coming back and keeps them ALIVE...to work it off, to eat more, to work it off, yummmm. Now I want pizza..too bad MY gym doesn't have it. :(

    There is a DQ across the street from mine. Reeses PB Cup Blizzard pre-workout, 2 chili cheese hot dogs for mid-workout, and then an ice cream cake post workout. Got the carbs and protein necessary to not die.

    I think I'll stick two giant turkey legs on the chest press. Each time I bring the weights back, I can take a bite.

    Steak on a rope on the treadmill, perhaps?

    that just seems cruel. but I get the reasoning

    I want to go to this gym...lol! Actually when I was ignorant and didn't know better..I did go to a gym that offered pizza nights. Thank goodness I discovered LEANGAINS! And I have yet to die of starvation...
